#MISSIONMARATHON – How To Prepare For A Marathon

MISSION MARATHON STARTS NOW....

So you’ve signed up to run a marathon this year, now what?

We’ve teamed up with Runner’s World UK to create three 16 week marathon training plans, based on three different running goals.

But it’s not just about the running, it’s also about the right nutrition for your body. If you want to support your muscles after a run, check out our range of high protein bars, shakes and powders – every serving contains 20g of protein!
